Yes, I've strayed a bit from the L.A. scene the last few months due to the artwalk, DBA256 and other events in Pomona that rock! Congrats and keep it up!

I appreciate very much that you have created an alternative place for news of Pomona. Losing Pomona's newspaper was one of the big blows of the past, and the result has been a scarcity of Pomona news.<br /><br />Just want to mention that I find your aversion to vacant lots curious. I used to love that Pomona had lots of open spaces. I wanted to buy a vacant lot someday for a large garden or wholesale plant nursery. I have been seriously dismayed in recent years as infill has occurred all over town, packing high density housing with scant (or no) yards into the formerly open spots. Yeah, I know, Prop 13 and tax revenues and all that. I preferred the stasis that prevailed for years over the headlong rush to pave every piece of earth. It used to be that one could gather edible greens from the local fields after late winter rains had turned our world green. <br /><br />Now, how about that mural?Robinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28861749.post-80566708341392943452009-05-28T16:36:33.409-07:002009-05-28T16:36:33.409-07:00Yours was the first local blog I discovered, and y...Yours was the first local blog I discovered, and your approach was so intriguing and immediate, it helped inspire me to start blogging too.<br /><br />Thanks for your friendship. I've always considered myself a friend of the blog and try to help when I can.<br /><br />I will say that it's a shame that after working so hard to build up an audience you've scaled back so severely.<br /><br />Remember the heady days when you vowed to write about every single business on Garey? (And here I thought writing 26 "Pomona A to Z" columns was ambitious.) Now we're lucky to get a post out of you every couple of weeks.<br /><br />If you're concerned that the number of comments has declined, that probably explains it. Interest begets interest.<br /><br />But it can't be easy to keep yourself motivated, esp. without pay. Props on making it to Year 3, and for sticking with the blog even on a limited scale.David Allenhttp://www.dailybulletin.com/davidallenblognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28861749.post-50737128238384758342009-05-28T15:02:41.339-07:002009-05-28T15:02:41.339-07:00Good for you, GOP- Cheers!!!!Good for you, GOP- Cheers!!!!tibbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00149457937125233979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28861749.post-55905605881528685732009-05-28T11:28:08.600-07:002009-05-28T11:28:08.600-07:00I discovered your blog only recently and thus can'...I discovered your blog only recently and thus can't lay claim to being a "long-time reader, first time commenter", but happy blogoversary anyhow.<br />As a former Pomonian, I have a special place in my heart for P-town.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06220429838465816028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28861749.post-77150467609864608592009-05-28T10:55:29.448-07:002009-05-28T10:55:29.448-07:00Happy Birthday and all the best!
